Predicting papillary thyroid microcarcinoma in American College of Radiology Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (ACR TI-RADS) 3 nodules: radiomics analysis based on intratumoral and peritumoral ultrasound images.

ABSTRACT:

Background

A subset of patients undergoing thyroid surgery for presumed benign thyroid disease presented with papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC). A non-invasive and precise method for early recognition of PTMC are urgently needed. The aim of this study was to construct and validate a nomogram that combines intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics features as well as clinical features for predicting PTMC in the American College of Radiology Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (ACR TI-RADS) 3 nodules using ultrasonography.

Methods

A retrospective review was conducted on a cohort of 221 patients who presented with ACR TI-RADS 3 nodules. These patients were subsequently pathologically diagnosed with either PTMC or benign thyroid nodules. These patients were randomly div
